Channel Surfer: Weekend TV

A handful of new Christmas-themed movies and the third-season finale of HBO's "Boardwalk Empire" top your picks for weekend TV. In other words, maybe it's a good time to pop in your favorite holiday movie.

"A Bride for Christmas" (7 p.m. Saturday on Hallmark, cable channel 77): After Jessie Peterson (Arielle Kebbel) calls off her third engagement -- at the altar, mind you -- she finds herself swept away by the perfect man (Andrew Walker). Little does she know he's made a bet with his friends that he can find a girl to marry him by Christmas.

"The Christmas Heart" (7 p.m. Sunday on Hallmark, cable channel 77): A teen boy needs a heart transplant, darkening the season in his usually festive neighborhood. Sounds like a real weeper.

"Once Upon a Time" (7 p.m. Sunday on ABC, cable channel 8): Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) and Cora (Barbara Hershey) race to find a magic compass, and Hook flashes back to his time in Wonderland.

"The Amazing Race" (7:30 p.m. Sunday on CBS, cable channel 12): The Final Four head to Spain, where they play tennis on Rafael Nadal's practice courts and enter a bullring, where one racer leaves bloody.

"The Walking Dead" (8 p.m. Sunday on AMC, cable channel 38): It's midseason finale time for this unrelenting show, which has been nothing short of spectacular this season. No clue what'll happen tonight, but it's gonna be gross. Can't wait.

"Revenge" (8 p.m. Sunday on ABC, cable channel 8): Nolan (Gabriel Mann) is confronted by a skeleton from his past. Could it be his ex-boyfriend (EJ Bonilla), who's in possession of some important knowledge?

"Downton Abbey" (8 p.m. Sunday on PBS, cable channel 3): Jump back into the manor as the second season starts up again in preparation for the upcoming debut of Season 3.

"Finding Mrs. Claus" (8 p.m. Sunday on Lifetime, cable channel 29): Will Sasso and Mira Sorvino star as Mr. and Mrs. Claus in this new movie, which finds Santa's old lady heading to Vegas for a weekend away from the grind.

"Boardwalk Empire" (8 p.m. Sunday on HBO, cable channel 651): Nucky (Steve Buscemi) takes desperate measures to regain control of Atlantic City on the third-season finale, which also features a new song recorded by Patti Smith expressly for the show.

"The Good Wife" (8:30 p.m. Sunday on CBS, cable channel 12): Eli (Alan Cumming) feels some heat from the Justice Department, and Will (Josh Charles) and Alicia (Julianna Margulies) work together on a murder case.

"666 Park Avenue" (9 p.m. Sunday on ABC, cable channel 8): Whoopi Goldberg guests as a woman who hypnotizes Jane (Rachael Taylor) into going back in time. See, if they'd done more seriously trippy stuff like this from the start, I think this show could have made it at least a full season.

"Homeland" (9 p.m. Sunday on Showtime, cable channel 711): Saul (Mandy Patinkin) decides to investigate a lead on his own, and Brody's (Damian Lewis) political career may be in jeopardy.
